Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The group taking part will include those who have sustained various brain, sight, leg, back and other injuries, as well as those suffering from PTSD and other mental health problems.

This memorable 5 day challenge with 3 days trekking and overnight camping under the stars goes deep into Iceland where volcanoes and mountains tower overhead, glaciers and waterfalls carve out the landscape whilst geysers and hot springs bubble up from far beneath our feet. This will be a wild hiking experience, starting across lava and snow fields towards the hot spring of Storihver before crossing fields of glistening black opsidium rock. We will swim in the huge volcanic lake of Alftavatn and wade through ice-cold glacial streams. We will trek along deep gorges and over desert-like passes crossing rivers with rope bridges en route to the valley of Thorsmork. Here we will be surrounded by towering mountains and giant glaciers along with raging rivers, waterfalls and craggy peaks.
